Mission

Founded in 2006 by Peter Mayfield, a successful leader, pioneer, and innovator in mountain sports programs, Gateway Mountain Center is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation operating under a Special Use Permit from Tahoe National Forest. Gateway Mountain Center brings together the transformative power of human connection and nature immersion to help young people learn, heal, and thrive. Our innovative, science-informed method called 4Roots for Growing a Human supports the emotional, mental, physical, and social well-being of all young people regardless of where they come from, their life experiences, and their physical abilities. Our work happens in all the places where young people need this support. That includes working with schools, collaborating with community groups and youth organizations, offering services at our community wellness center, and delivering our clinically supervised, nature-based, therapeutic mentoring program.

Sierra Experience - Sierra Experience includes both camps and schools program services. Schools is more academic based. We foster a sense of wonder, connection, and inquiry. We connect youth with themselves, nature, and community with spirited and transformative adventures. Serving 4th - 12th grade students, our holistic curriculum is shaped by common core, next generation science standards, STEM principles, and best practices in current wellness, ecology, and mountain sports. Using the science of awe and systems thinking, students connect the dots between the personal and the universal.

WHMB - Whole Hearts, Minds, and Bodies is a program for young people who want to approach their lives and well-being in a full and integrated way. We utilize an approach we call Nature Based therapeutic Mentoring, which combines modern therapeutic approaches with traditional mentoring to create relationships that are deliberate and nurturing. With nature as our backdrop we guide youth through multi hour activity based sessions where they learn skills and develop the capacities they need to face their challenges and meet life with confidence

Wellness - Wellness is a feeder program to whole hearts - it's our first point of contact with building relationships with all the youth we serve. We go into schools, and we do cool things. We work closely with the principles, teachers, counselors, and psychologists. We may do up to 5 sessions like a WHMB mentor situation, but call it wellness. It turns into whole hearts when it becomes long term. We are the crisis go-to's: immigration problems, medical support, interfacing with a parent, they call us.
